MAYBE FAME HAS RUINED THIS BAND
It's almost like these guys gave up and decided to cash paychecks instead of writing inspired music. . I am really bummed out about this release. I hope they get a kick in the head from all the bad reviews and do some REAL song writing instead of going through the motions.

The single was just okay, but the rest of this CD is really bad. Maybe chicks dig it, but I have to pass. Hope for a better release next time.


didnt blow it
True to form, this album puts you on the feel good trip without to many politics. Incubus, when they stick a little bit to there feel good formula is hard to beat. Graet album.


Great music, depressing lyrics
But Brandon seriously needs to find a girl that will treat him right. Incubus is always great musically. I get depressed by his lyrics on this CD. Seems like he has resigned himself to suffer the torture of a selfish woman.


What happened to Incubus?!
" I never knew that Incubus was *that* awesome. I received "Make Yourself" and "Morning View" for Xmas presents and I was blown away the first time I listened to "Make Yourself. I listened to those two albums almost every day. So I was excited when I was finally able to buy "S. C. I. E. N. C. E", "A Crow. . . " and "Light Grenades" this past week. "S. C. I. E. N. C. E" blew me away even more than "Make Yourself" so I had high hopes for the others. "A Crow. . . " was ok, but not good. And "Light Grenades" is plain terrible. I must've gotten a different album than everyone else because I simply canNOT understand how people could think this is a great album. The melodies are sappy pop song melodies, not rock melodies. The intelligent lyrics with social commentary and self-awareness are gone in favor of lame love song lyrics. Brandon Boyd's voice doesn't even sound like the same one from the earlier works. Hearing "Light Grenades" has just about ruined Incubus for me because I can't forget what they've become while listening to the good albums. I wish I could erase the memory of "Light Grenades" from my mind.


what happened to Incubus?
Having said that, this album is very disappointing. i love Incubus. i listened to it once and that was enough. I never expected Incubus was capable of making a bad album until i heard Light Grenades. I wouldnt recommend this to anyone who likes all the other Incubus albums.
